Problem

-- after importing a deployment package, no error is thrown, and all objects are imported except the Mapping Flow

-- this errors occurs in MappingServices.log :

"Cannot find the source instruction for creating the link <out7>"

Resolution

* the import is not able to identify the output link "out777"

* open the files MapStage_*.xml and search for "out777"

* remove the section specific to "out777"

Ex :

<Link from="3" id="15" label="" mapBrokerOutput="oDef" name="MAPSERVICE.RCV824CRW.RCV824V8R1CRW_SWITCH:oDef" to="8" xmlVersion="1.0">
<Object id="fcb1f762-e04f-4248-95be-7d502cc319f3">
<name>MAPSERVICE.RCV824CRW.RCV824V8R1CRW_SWITCH:out777</name>
</Object>
</Link>

* re-import the deployment package

* open the Mapping Flow and recreate the missing links
